A:  We do not make a 50 CFM version of model AERN80K,

A:  Recessed means that the body of the exhaust fan sits within the ceiling. I don't think I have ever seen a FLAT or SURFACE mounted exhaust.

A:  Recessed installation means the housing of the unit is installed in a hole in the ceiling. The only piece you will see once installed is the grille cover. Surface or flat would mean the whole unit is installed on top of a surface. All our exhaust fans are made for recessed installation.

A:  Having recently installed it, I think you could install it in any orientation to the ceiling, but you cannot change the exhaust port location, you would have to be able to move the exhaust hose to accommodate.

A:  For specification, application, and installation questions please contact our Technical Support Team direct at 888-336-6151 they are available Monday – Friday from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM EST. They would be happy to assist you.

A:  For the best installation of model AERN110K we recommend rigid metal 4" duct; keeping the duct run as short and straight as possible. If you have further questions please reach out to our Technical Support Team at 888-336-6151 they are available Monday – Friday from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM EST. They would be happy to assist you.

A:  No, it cannot.

A:  It’s just a exhaust. You want to minimize the pace the exhaust sucks air out? Seems pointless. But I don’t think you can. You need the regular switch.

A:  Thank you for your continued interest in our products. If you purchase a new model then your old unit would have to be removed, including the old housing. You certainly have the option of getting replacement parts for the QT-110. Please contact our Technical Support Department at 888-336-6151 for assistance with identifying the best product or parts to meet your needs.

A:  Yes, it was.

A:  If dirt is in the air, it is going to get into the fan if the fan is doing its job. While I suppose fans could include some kind of filter that could be changed or cleaned, it still would involve getting out a step ladder and taking off the fan cover. Once you done that, however, it only takes a minute to clean the fan compartment.

A:  Yes, the gaps on this unit are only around the edges. This creates less area for the fan to build up dust that over time becomes caked on due to moisture. It moves air efficiently so it will build up if you have an open panel or not. I personally find that if you slide the panel to the open position and take compressed air and blow it out every few months, you will really not have to clean it out every few years.

A:  Yes, that is what it is designed to do.

A:  I don’t think so. It all depends on the location (meaning your space)

A:  The AERN80K uses a 4" duct. An 80 CFM unit with a 4" duct can have a duct run of up to 20 feet. Keep in mind that for each 90 Degree elbow in the duct run, you will have to reduce the duct run by 4 feet. Please contact our Broan-NuTone Technical Support Department at 1-888-336-6151 between 8:30 AM and 7:00 PM (EST) Monday-Friday for any additional questions. Thank you.
